monday hachoo

last week made a pact
(with myself) most of the day
this week nothing's changed

wake up bed cloths smooth
around me, sun rises around
nice day with third grade

sunday haiku

2pm morning
Off to the bus to the boat
Music, snow, then sleep

finally yoga morning-
lookout you and look out me
car ride down new roads

saturday

Four people, one bed
My view of the world broadened
Wasting life drinking

wake up to wonder
begin work on art website
draw in black and white

friday haiku

i am a floater
snows all afternoon; nothing
art is not for sale?

Wake up saturday
Four people, one bed and I
Don't remember how

Ps: after a long week
Or short, hard work or no work
Straight gin will kill ya

thursday

Buses suspended
barricaded by snow wall
cross out all but "sex"

OH MY GOSH snowy
be with the first grade, hold ground
first (picture) in weeks

wednesday haiku

Temples don't matter
What you do and what you don't
Why tell me I'm wrong?

pulled skin off my thumb
danced in my room to music
washed and combed my hair

haiku tuesday

Bells, sleepy good-byes
Spin too many plates, they fall
Inspired to "be"

5:27
school closed 8:57
now, draw and listen

monday hachoo

So much ice and snow
Work until seven fifteen
Talk with our souls

deep sleep, no dreaming
ice on the inside my window
no sleep, driving home

Sunday, January 23, 2011

sunday

Sleep for half the day
Spray, color, silly outfits
Backward heading home

tidy, put out food
make space for all the people
chit'n'chat, party

Saturday, January 22, 2011

saturday

House burned down, come back
Cold limbs, hammer, nails, headlights
Toothpicked elegance

bake cookies, make pie
bye! encyclopedias
rural we post signs

snow day friday

not enough to stay
the fire went out, its gone
shape up or ship out

four to eight inches
during which clean house, tuck in
night time dinner, dine

Friday, January 21, 2011

thursday

kindergarten school
feel like creating something
walking home to sing

this path has no heart
so much time spent on nothing
save a little soul

No more saying. Do.
I don't give a shit about
Anything at all.

wednesday highkoo

slept so well. loud mouth
(can this girl ever listen?)
find something to feel

can't do it, sorry.
make soup and clean drawers while snow
stops, so record song.

tues highkoo

so soon wake-up to
icy roads and puddle lakes
making progress, slow

sheets of ice, slide, sink
when, when will you be landing?
don't ever settle

Wake up art teacher
Easy to see how trees have
sprouted from mountains

Train, pick-up, spilled wine

double haiku martin luther king jr monday:

Sink or swim you sneak-
Ee devil sink or swim the
End is near throw your

Dream of ringing harp
And angels wings friends on
Their way. Sunny day

Learning to listen
More than ears are needed
Become quiet: hear

Step out into day
Familiar places we'd go
Music, roses, snow

Friday, January 14, 2011

day with second grade
it is nine degrees at night
drive across state lines

Days go by so fast
Skyline red, reflecting sun
Work until bedtime

18 inches of snow
draw houses and begin igloo
yoga/ apple pie

Feet sink into snow
Gutters dangle icicles
Stories from London

haiku tuesday

Child statistics
Wait, wait, produce, artists come
Pray for a snow day

wake-up blood all over
no work, yes yoga, and errands.
drawn in black, listen

haiku MONDAY

let's call it: no call
make piles of old artwork: burn
i learned from old art

NOW MAKE MORE
MAKE BETTER

So unproductive
Ghosting, ears pop, the sun sets
Many silent words

sunday haiku

i love everywhere sun
spent a day spending a day
dreaming of you two

Ten am, breathe through
One half of nose, good enough
Patient while face fear

Saturday, January 8, 2011

saturday

beautiful grey snow
dead snow makes it hard to breathe
working on a plan

Open door, fresh cold air
Solitude, gardens, laundry
Head throbs, up too late

snow day friday

Snow day, foggy head
Illness spoils friends' surprise
Grateful for their love

oh my gosh snowing!
sit up in bed and some tea.
soo lazy today.

Morning shopping rush
Cover tables, jo beth prints
Loud noises repeat

wednesday highkoo

called in, get ready
reading teacher k-2.
it is kim's birthday!

your knees to my back
escape, groggy music time
friends, family, love

tues highkoo

wake up so dizzy
early doubts fade, sleepwalker
quiet sincere night

can't fall asleep, cruel
daydream: living with best friends
one year of yoga

Tuesday, January 4, 2011

monday hachoo

Tucked you in then left
Can't give me hope with no hope
Search for something more

Sleepwalking through days
Over before it began
Sore throat, winter blues

no call: day of rest
clean closet engrossed maytrees
stencil, go places, paint!

sunday haiku

Sleep in the middle
Walk, walk, rain in Bryant Park
Home, then turn around

spent months missing friends.
enough to make me wanna stay,
sanctuary weekend.

fri/sat

friday: nye

Meet in East Village
Dance! Forget the year that's passed
Be glad, not selfish

Sporadic wake
Board train avoid eye contact
Love to all my friends

saturday: 2011

one, zero one, one-one
late breakfast, leisurely walk
quiet lull before friends

first day of the year
peaceful healing day with pals
make plans with poor Clare
